Hi, today I've tried to compile the latest r1056 on debian unstable with external ffmpeg, libavcodeccvs51 version 3:20080414. There have been two main issues, that needed some fixing.
a) header location: Latest ffmpeg/avcodec headers are now installed in /usr/include/ffmpeg, /usr/include/ffmpeg/libavcodec, and libswscaler, respectively. Is anyone on this list familiar with latest ffmpeg ? Is it suggested to expand/adapt the include path, or should we only include /usr/include/ffmpeg and change code to "#include <libavcodec/avcodec.h>", etc. ? b) conflicting header include order: In the updated ffmpeg.h, the include section of swscaler/ffmpeg, which is wrapped inside a extern "C" statement, is place before "#include "guicast.h". This gave me a bunch of "template with C linkage" error, which is sometimes called 'dangling extern "C"' (http://www.gidforums.com/t-9853.html). To fix this one it was just a matter of reordering the includes: #include "guicast.h" #ifdef HAVE_SWSCALER extern "C" { #include "ffmpeg.h" #include <libswscale/swscale.h> } #endif Is it required to fix SVN code, or is cinerella not intended to work with latest ffmpeg ?
